1968 E-type Roadster With Custom-built Ford Racing V8 & Tall Tremec 5 Speed on 2040-cars
Redwood City, California, United States

The best of both worlds. British class, lays rubber in third gear. A very careful, documented conversion, no cutting or welding, no expense spared ($32,153). The original 4.2L engine and 4 sp transmission come with the car should you ever want to return to original. The original engine was completely rebuilt and run for 15k miles before storing it. The second owner (a cable CEO) purchased the car at 40k miles and converted it. I’m the third owner. 76,378 total California miles on the car. Repainted
once with great care, body and chrome an 8.5-9.0 overall. Body has never been hit. Zero rust, hasn’t been driven on a wet road since
I bought it. New interior. Modern Dunlop wheels; tires very good (no visible wear, some light checking). What’s wrong with the car: Wipers don’t work. Speedometer needle wavers, should be rebuilt. A small (1/2”) ding in the bonnet. A short (1/2”) tear in the top repaired from the inside -- top is otherwise excellent, with a clear and unscratched backlight. School
tuitions force sale. An immaculate,
reliable and immensely enjoyable car.
Unbelievable acceleration. You will not be disappointed. |

Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars
Wed, 25 Sep 2013The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.
Lapping Le Mans with 1956's version of a dash cam
Wed, 01 May 2013Mike Hawthorne and Ivor Bueb won The 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1955 driving a Jaguar D-Type. The following year, a few days before the race, a British broadcaster put cameras on Hawthorne's car, hung a mic from a plate on his race suit and had him narrate a lap of the Circuit de la Sarthe.
It is compelling viewing. A new pit complex was built after the massive accident on the front straight in 1955, but this was still a time when crews prepped for the race on roads that were open to the public. Hawthorne's lap includes maneuvers to avoid bicyclists and cars, and gems like letting us know that doing 185 miles per hour down the Mulsanne Straight was where you could "relax a little, recover your energy." Watch him work it like the men of old in the video below.
Are you the soon-to-be-revealed Jaguar CUV concept?
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Following the teaser of the Jaguar CX-17 Concept released last weekend, the first official image of the Jaguar crossover concept appears to have hit the Internet ahead of its introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Assuming this is the real deal, the tall, upright front end removes any doubt that this is anything but a preview for the upcoming Jaguar crossover, which will likely be called either the XQ or the Q-Series. Reports suggest that Jag's first-ever CUV is likely to go into production in 2016, and it will bring with it the option for a Jaguar-developed four-cylinder engine replacing the current mills still sourced from former parent Ford.
